From the very first page the author Rick Acker has you realizing this is a book you can’t put down, even if you wanted to. His main characters brothers Karl and Gunnar are at each other’s throats over a pharmaceutical company they both developed. Karl now the director is trying to get his brother to give him the remaining information on a new drug they are developing.

He is absolutely stunned at the tricks Karl’s lawyer takes and the deliberate attempts Karl has taken to get rid of his brother.
